PSA BDP, a provider of globally integrated and port-centric supply chain, transportation, and logistics solutions, announced the inauguration of its new Electric Vehicle (EV) battery logistics warehouse in Dunkirk, France.
With this warehouse, PSA BDP aims to offer contract logistics services to the region’s rapidly growing Auto EV cluster.
